ACR STOVES T550 Technisch handboek
We recommend that the appliance is serviced annually by a competent
engineer to ensure it's continued safe operation.

Daily Maintenance

• The grate should be cleaned regularly
and the ash pan emptied daily.
Do not empty the ashpan when hot,
please note that the glove provided is
not intended for emptying hot ashes,
never leave hot ashes inside the
property, always dispose of the hot
ashes safely outdoors.
Never allow the ash in the ashpan to
overfill allowing ash to be in contact
with the underside of the grate.
This will overheat the grate and cause
premature wear and distortion.

Periodic Maintenance

• The chimney should be swept at least
once a year together with the flue pipe
connection. Care should be taken to
ensure that there is not a build up of
soot on the baffle and in the airways of
the appliance.
• If the appliance has not been operated
for long periods, the flue should be
inspected and swept before use to
ensure there are no blockages within
the flue.
• The internal vermiculite panels of the
appliance should be checked regularly
for soundness. If any wear and tear is
found, we recommend these parts are
replaced immediately.
• Check the rope door seals are intact
and are not worn. These should be
replaced on an annual basis to ensure
the correct operation of this appliance.
• The glass can be cleaned using a soft
damp cloth and window cleaner or a
stove glass cleaner (available from
your local stockist)
Maintenance
Internal refractory panels
During the normal operation of your
ACR stove, the refractory panels will
experience heating and cooling.
Sometimes minor hairline cracks can
occur. All ACR stoves have a steel or
cast iron structure behind the panels
and therefore even if the cracks get
larger, the stove will still operate safely.
It is advisable to consider replacing the
internal panels when:
• The cracks are greater than 3mm.
• The surface of the refractory panel has
eroded more than 25% of it's original
thickness, or
• When the panel starts to crumble and
fall apart in chunks.
To prevent the issue from happening
and prolong the life of your internal
panels, the homeowner should "burn in"
the refractory panels in the new
appliance by building small kindling fires
to begin with and then gradually
working up to a larger fire. When adding
more fuel to the fire, caution should be
used to prevent excessive mechanical
damage to the panels.
ACR heat products bears no
responsibility for the loss or damage of
any kind to the internal panels during or
after installation or during the normal
operation of the appliance.
Use only replacement parts
recommended by the manufacturer.
